Introduction (Entry Level) Electrical Course - 2 days

This entry level course is tailored for delegates in the Engineering and manufacturing field who have no prior experience with electrics and need to acquire basic knowledge in this area.

The course primarily provides theoretical knowledge rather than practical competency. While it offers valuable insights and understanding of electrical circuits and components, it does not, by itself, qualify a previously non-accredited person to work on live electrical circuits in a commercial or industry setting. Additional practical training and certification may be required to meet industry standards and safety regulations

The course delivery will be workshop-based, emphasizing a hands-on approach. While the introduction will take place in the classroom to cover health and safety, the practical elements will be conducted entirely within the workshop setting. This approach ensures that participants gain practical skills and familiarity with electrical concepts.
